Game Recap
Indiana Fever W earned a 90-73 victory over Portland W, pulling away for a 17-point win behind efficient scoring and a balanced offensive effort. Indiana controlled the game with better ball movement and stronger work on the glass, finishing with 21 assists and 36 rebounds compared with Portland’s 9 assists and 28 rebounds.
Aliyah Boston led the Fever with 24 points, providing a consistent interior presence and anchoring Indiana’s attack. Lexie Hull added 16 points, giving the Fever another reliable scoring option, while Monique Billings contributed 9 points in support. Indiana’s perimeter shooting also helped create separation, as the Fever made 9 three-pointers.
Portland shot efficiently overall, going 24-for-46 from the field, but struggled to generate enough offense from beyond the arc, making just 3 of 16 three-point attempts. The limited assist total also reflected difficulties sustaining offensive rhythm and creating high-quality looks throughout the game.
For Indiana, the result reinforces the value of its inside-out balance and improved execution in key stretches. Portland will look to address its perimeter shooting and playmaking as it moves forward, particularly after being out-rebounded and out-assisted in a game where those margins helped decide the outcome.
